Through adding 28 SQM of additional space, we have been able to achieve an open plan living, kitchen and dining room which is perfect. As part of the full renovation of this family home in South East London, we designed and built the ground floor wraparound extension. The new space is flooded with natural light, thanks to the four large architectural skylights along the side return, and the full width.
Build Team did our house top to bottom, and were very professional throughout. Our project manager was always organised and on top of things. A lot of things I wanted were not easy and they managed to deliver a really high end product. I couldn't be more pleased with the work carried out by Build Team.
From start to finish, Dan, Mark and the team ensured that we were kept informed of what was going to happen and when, so I could organise my family around the works. I would say Build Team made it as easy and hassle-free as humanly possible.

Build Team got our planning application for a double storey extension completed and approved quickly. We initially used a different builder but Build Team help us out really quickly when our first builder left us in the lurch. They did a really great job and Mauro was polite and helpful throughout. I would highly recommend Build Team for both planning and building work

This was a redevelopment of an old garage to a single storey summer house. Steven from Build Team offered a fine solution but listened to my feedback, leading to a two storey building after several iterations. The conclusion was to exactly meet my requirements, but taking on board Steven's suggestions and comments. He was flexible in adapting the original design.
This was a complicated project, and Steven through Build Team helped oversee the build, which threw up multiple challenges. He helped keep the Building Company's Project Manager in check, deal with challenging Boundary Line issues and

Went with Build Team as a previous project fell through and from the start they were supportive and honoured some previous agreements. We didn't know where to start with planning and design and Build Team took care of the whole process for us. David the designer had lots of knowledge and was able to tell us what was achievable for the budget, and was very responsive with changes and alterations to the design. They submitted all the documents to building control/council etc which was ideal.
At the build stage, the quote was competitive and Sean Kember the Build Manager brought the team round for

First impressions were positive and the architect came up with ideas that hadn’t even crossed my mind , so from a design perspective on paper was very positive. He was also happy to book time in to speak to my next door neighbours who had some concerns
There were a couple of problems when the build start including the discovery of a main sewer pipe which put the project back a bit and consumed all my contingency Funds. The fact that this could happen and I was told was not unusual could have been highlighted much more effectively at the beginning of the project and I had to rethink finances

Having endured the problems of having major works carried out on our house in the form of a loft extension, I was aware of the pitfalls of incurring a poor builder. However, I was very fortunate to have been introduced to Build Team as they were professional all throughout the build. It's very rare to say builders are caring but the team at Build Team really care
Build Team designed, project managed and built our kitchen and side return. The managers at Build Team took the time to make regular contact with us throughout the build to ensure we were happy with work carried out on site.

We went with Build Team for design and build of our ground floor return extension and loft extension. We were overall pleased with our experience of Build Team and it gave us protection and reassurance when undertaking such a large project with relatively little prior experience of building work. We were extremely pleased with the building contractors, who delivered the project on time and to a very high standard. Build Team supported when a few minor issues with neighbours arose, and that was very reassuring.

Build Team did a really great job of designing and building our ground floor side return extension.
As is usual with a victorian property we came up against a few challenges along the way both in terms of what the building threw up and build errors which will always happen. Specifically the Build Team surveyor spotted that one of the foundations was incorrectly sized - this was rectified quickly and with very little input needed from me, the client. It is clear that they are used to dealing with these types of property and also have the right kind of relationship with the contractor they suggested

BuildTeam designed, helped with planning and built a ground floor extension for us. The project started before but spanned the Coronavirus lockdown, which often prevented regular face-to-face liaison and project management, but things proceeded and went well, running close to time and budget in spite of this. An excellent job, recommended. Project manager Juliana Maia, Foreman Sokol Palluqi.

We engaged Build Team to design our loft conversion and ground floor extension. We have been extremely satisfied with the quality of their service. Like many design and build companies, they created the drawings, and helped us get through planning permission successfully. But what really stood out was the quality of the service they provided after the fact. A few months after we had the completed drawings and had paid, we ran into an issue with our build. Build Team created an entirely new set of drawings for us, which solved the problem, and got us back through planning permission. There's just

Why to use Build Team form a cynic whose build has just been signed off: 1) When looking for builders, all the friends I spoke to about their build confirmed that in the end they could not recommend their builders. 2) Build Team have the best builders. Artan and his team (particularly Nick and Bash) were some of the most polite and hardworking people I've met. I cannot say enough good things about them, and nor unbelievably, can my neighbours! They are passionate about whatthey do and their attention to detail is faultless. If there 'had' somehow been a problem I would have the comfort that Build
